Matthew W. - Birmingham, AL 35215 (20.7 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $32.50/hr.
I have spent most of my life in an academic environment. I thrive on success- not only my own, but also the success of others around me. I became a substitute teacher in order to gain experience as a classroom leader. Tutoring is a necessary duty of an educator. I believe a one on one environment is conducive to learning and retaining information; being able to receive direct feedback from an educator is one of the most valuable assets to a young learner.

David B. - Birmingham, AL 35206 (22.1 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $20.00/hr.
I have been writing for my whole life, and have a love of the art that is description. Since Mich of humanity's understanding is based on metaphor, description and its subtleties is a key part of any writing process, be it creative or instructional.My favorite form of writing is creative, however I also enjoy writing essays and other pieces based on fact. No matter what form of writing you endeavor to do, getting your point across through description is paramount. I have placed and won poetry contests, and have written many essays of undergraduate and graduate levels.

Jameria H. - Birmingham, AL 35205 (27.4 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I've tutored two kids in my neighborhood for 40 buck every two weeks. It was a marvelous experience because they were very respectful young boys...majority of the time. It was kind of hard for them to keep their focus so i drew a plan which was rewarding them with candy and toys, and of course since it was my idea I didn't charge extra. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to tutor them anymore because had to move with my mother. All in all, no matter the task I will always try my best to achieve!!!

Ivana B. - Birmingham, AL 35209 (28.4 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $27.50/hr.
My teaching style is student centered-the way I teach will depend on the best way the student learns. I will always be positive and patiesnt as this tends to yield the best results.

Daniel M. - Gardendale, AL 35071 (28.7 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $27.50/hr.
As a former Copy Writer in the Professional Corporate World, my delicately skilled mind has been injected with days on top of countless days of experience in the mysterious art of Word Craft. Professionally, I have experience constructing everything from Press Releases to DVD Cover Copy, editing television documentaries, polishing marketing materials, and much more. Also, on the creative side, I write fiction in the form of short stories, screenplays, and am working on several novels --when time permits and genius strikes or at least faintly glimmers. I am a dynamic person: passionate about the arts, entertainment, and just about everything else. I definitely bring zeal and creativity to my teaching, but am also a fun-loving and laid-back guy. Although I am not a certified teacher I taught theology and speech at a private high school. I loved my students tremendously. And I tried to make

Nabella S. - Birmingham, AL 35226 (31.7 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I have taught (intermittently) college level English for 20 years. I have also taught ESL in public schools for 8 years. I now tutor on my own time any age level and anything related to English---including helping people finish memoirs or other books/novels. I am also a writer, working on a novel and screenplays/stageplays. I also write for local publications. Teaching with compassion for the learner is my style of teaching. Making students understand their abilities and not dwell on any weaknesses are important for learning. I take ESL students at their level and help them make progress that is relevant to their lives.

Christy S - Trussville, AL 35173 (17.1 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $38.50/hr.
For years, my passion has been “to gladly learn and gladly teach.” Since graduating from law school, I coached Cumberland’s National Arbitration team to two consecutive top 20 placements, taught “Criminal Evidence” to Miles College undergrads, and now will being teaching “Research and Writing” at the Birmingham School of Law. I have also taught karate and coached girl’s junior Olympic volleyball, so I’m passionate and energetic, as well. My teaching style has to do primarily with desire; that is, if you want it and work hard, you can achieve your goals. One cannot teach or coach “heart” or discipline – that is all I require of my students -- the desire to learn, achieve, get better at what it is they are doing. I will work diligently to understand what is blocking that road to success, teach tips, tactics, and shortcuts to understanding theory, and support a love of the subject or sp

Philip T - Birmingham, AL 35205 (22.2 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I have extensive writing experience and have written several books including How to Give a Damn Good Speech and Business Writing for Busy People. I have worked as a newspaper reporter, magazine editor, advertising copy writer, corporate speech writer and a marketing director for a publishing company.
I curently teach freshman composition at the University of Alabama ,the University of Alamaba at Birmingham and Lawson State. I have over 20 years of adjunct teaching experience on the college level I believe that it is often best to work witha student one-on-one, especially to improve their writing. Don't point out their mistakes, praise them for what they are doing well, then show how they can do even better to learn how to write on a college level.

Charity J - Gadsden, AL 35902 (24.5 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $34.50/hr.
Many children struggle with classroom learning because they require a different learning method than the one being offered or more direct attention than a teacher of 20+ students can offer. As a dyslexia therapist I was instructed in a number of different approaches to teaching and how to match each one to an individual student's needs. As a tutor I make it my priority to learn not only which subjects a student needs help with but also why they are struggling at all which allows me to adapt the lesson plan in a way that is easy for them to understand and retain. Even before attaining my degree in English from Jacksonville State University I was passionate about all forms of teaching. I have over a year of experience tutoring college students at Jacksonville State University's Academic Center for Excellence and immediately following that nearly another year of experience tutoring dyslexic

Amasico R - Birmingham, AL 35242 (25 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $34.50/hr.
While attending the University of Mississippi I worked three jobs and finished with a BS in Jouralism. This experience has greatly helped me with my writing and my understanding of words. I have learned how to structure ideas to form a balanced essay and other writing assignments.During the last two years I have worked hard on understanding the principles of writing and different techniques. This has allowed me to finish my first novel and I know look to publish it later this year. I enjoy the power of teaching and I work well with all types of learners. I am motivated by the mistakes I made because there wasn't anyone to direct me and mentor my decisions. I believe all people have greatness inside of them and I would love to strive forward in helping students decide their greatness. I would love to assist in helping others learn and not make the same mistakes I made.
